We have been learning about the brain and how it affects our short term and long term memory. We have discovered some interesting facts like our brains weigh around 3lbs, the size of your brain is the same as your two fists put together and that your brain sends messages at 300mph. One important job of your brain is to control your nervous system.
We have also been learning lots of new Spanish terms. These have included numbers to 10, some body parts like your feet or ‘peis’ and your eye ‘ojo’. A good way of remembering ‘ojo’ is that the word looks like an image of 2 eyes and a nose. To help us with our new learning we have had a visiting Spanish Assistant called Alba. She comes from the North of Spain. She told us that the Spanish tradition is to have your both your Mum and Dad’s Surname.
